I love this photo of the husband. He looks so serene. I took it in Iceland on our third Iceland trip back in 2017. When we're in Iceland, he keeps…
In this video I talk with Julien Malka who is a PhD student on supply chain security. I have known Julien through Emacs, so we start our discussion with some comments on how Julien uses Emacs for note-taking and as a general purpose...
The fatigue has been creeping up at me all week. I really need to figure out a program with getting CPAP compliant, but sleep has always been such a struggle for me as it is. Ever since I was young, I've always hated going to sleep. I...
When a pursuit becomes a drag, here's some questions to help you figure out why, and what to do about it.

This is a now page. If you have a blog, you should make one too. It’s been a while that I wrote about things that are ongoing. Not because nothing is going on. Mainly because I’ve been busy with work and life. I’m married now. I bought a...

Flip through any newspaper and there will be a clear divide between pieces that clearly took substantial amounts of effort, and other pieces that were written just to fill the page. Gone is the era of “All the news that’s fit to print”....
